The 28-year-old back got in to 14 games for the Rams in 2023 and will be Los Angeles' replacement for Blake Corum in the playoffs. Ronnie Rivers is expected to get most of the RB2 reps for the Rams behind Kyren Williams in the playoffs.
Rivers operated as the team's lead back with Kyren Williams resting alongside other Rams starters and Blake Corum sidelined with a forearm injury he sustained in the first half. Rivers was third on the team in targets and had a nearly every-down role in the final two quarters. He won't see postseason action unless Williams and Corum go down to injury.
Rams RB Blake Corum broke his forearm in Week 18 and will miss the playoffs, HC Sean McVay said. The injury shouldn't have too big an impact on Corum's offseason. His absence leaves Ronnie Rivers as the Rams' No. 2 RB. Kyren Williams might handle 100% of the backfield touches this postseason. The Rams host the loser of Sunday night's Lions-Vikings game in Round 1.
Rams lose their No.2 RB #Rams coach Sean McVay told reporters that RB Blake Corum broke his right forearm and is out for the playoffs. (Ian Rapoport on X) FF Today's Take: Corum was set to get substantial playing time in Week 18 but finished with just 3 touches for 22 yards. Ronnie Rivers handled 16 touches and figures to be the backup behind Kyren Williams when the Rams face the Vikings or Lions, pending the outcome of the Sunday night game in Week 18.
